Poole 2018


Recommended Posts

Im only guessing but I think maybe his avg is being looked at which may throw a spanner in the works.

He is not listed only because no contract has been signed yet.

 

Was confirmed in the Echo the other day. Poole purchased him as an asset I believe from Coventry but he is only seeing Matt Ford during the first 2 weeks of December where a contract for 2018 will be discussed and hopefully signed.

 

The article was reported in the Bournemouth Echo 30th Nov for those who want to see it.

 

That is why the SGB site removed it as he had not actually signed a contract yet. Some had wrongly assumed he was signed hence why he was shown on the SGB team riders signed for 2018 section (in error).

Pretty certain you all said the same thing when the 2017 teams were announced. Was it 5 victories and 1 draw?

No one could have predicted kk going completely awol. Reckon Poole are going to smash Swindon and most other teams next season. Just my opinion of course. ☠️

To be fair I predicted us to finish bottom last season. Just shows you never know what is going to happen. It could all go wrong for you lot again.

You forget though, that you are pretty hopeless when making predictions, after all you're always amazed if Poole win a meeting.

 

Btw, I had completely forgotten that Swindon beat Poole five times and drew once with them this season,

 

I assume you've forgotten that too :t:

Think everyone was surprised that KK flopped big time particularly given how he has always risen his game for the Pirates.

Must be the most frustrating rider to have in a team!

It could do. Injuries at the wrong time or riders like kk taking the P.

 

But no journeymen at Poole in 2018.

I have a funny feeling Milik may be reassed

Agreed,

 

But it sounds like it wont be over 8 (otherwise he wont be signing)and I imagine it will be 7.

 

He has only be an SEC rider so they cant actually make him that high.

 

 

 

 

If Ford had got his way with the 2 over 8 rule.

 

We could have had

 

Kurtz, Dudek, Milik and Holder.

 

That is a pretty good core of riders to have.

As should any rider who didn't ride here in 2017.

You can't have a rule for GP riders who missed here alone.

This is the BSPA we are talking about and they don't necessarily follow logic. If the rule just applies to SGP riders then it will be another example of self-interest by some promoters to ensure that they get someone (or more) in their team who is on a false low average
